Centering Prayer ...

Hidden God, ever present to me,

     may I now be present to you,

          attentive to your every word,

          attuned to you inspirations,

          alert to your touch.

Empty me that I may be filled with you alone.

Centering Prayer by Thomas Keating ...

Nothing is more beautiful than the uniqueness that God has created.

You don't have to create the beauty - you’ve got the beauty.

You don't have to create the freedom - you’ve got it.

You don't have to create the image of God in you - you have it.

You don't have to win over God’s love - you have more than you know what to do with.
